## Features
### Databases and data tools
- Built-in support for MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, DuckDB, SQL Server, Oracle, and ClickHouse; TDengine is provided as an installable extension driver, alongside Dameng DM, KingbaseES, GBase 8s, OceanBase, openGauss, Apache IoTDB, and Oscar.
- Browse database objects, edit and run SQL with execution plans, import and export data, compare schemas and data, and visualize relationships with ER diagrams.
- Dedicated Redis and MongoDB interfaces; middleware connections such as MQTT are provided through installable extensions (MQTT 3.1.1 over rustls, SSH tunneling, auto-resubscribe), with subscribe, messages, and publish views.
- Table-data tabs support batch-editing selected cells, typed editors for date/time/numeric columns, and copying table or column names from context menus.
### Remote access and operations
- SSH and local terminals with draggable split panes, quick commands, broadcast input, shell integration, session lock, recording and replay, searchable session logs with batch delete and incremental loading; Telnet and serial connections are also supported.
- Manage remote files with SFTP, FTP, and FTPS: uploads, downloads, search, favorites, remote editing (configurable size limits and default editor), drag-and-drop, ZMODEM transfer, and server-to-server copy. Create standalone FTP/FTPS connections, or switch the remote-file protocol on an SSH connection while its terminal keeps using SSH; an open-mode preference decides whether a double-click opens the terminal or the dual-pane file view.
- Reusable local, remote (`ssh -R`), and dynamic SOCKS port forwarding; X11 forwarding; host-key change warnings with explicit fingerprints; a Known Hosts page for reviewing, importing, and removing trusted SSH host keys; optional legacy SSH algorithms.
- Import SecureCRT sessions, monitor servers with native charts, and connect to remote desktops over RDP and VNC. On Windows, native MSTSC integration embeds the Microsoft RDP ActiveX control directly in the app via a C++ host, so you can use it inside a tab, in a fullscreen window, or launch the native `mstsc.exe` client; across platforms a pure-Rust IronRDP canvas backend renders RDP sessions.
### Editing, AI, and extensibility
- Local Markdown notes with Mermaid diagrams, math rendering, and export to HTML, PDF, or DOCX; the built-in editor supports save shortcuts and WASM language parsers for syntax highlighting.
- AI for SQL generation and explanation, data analysis, charts, terminal assistance, tool calling, and agent workflows; connect external agents through ACP for Codex, Claude Code, and OpenCode.
- Agent Hub keeps a terminal agent, project files, Git branches, changes, and side-by-side diffs in one workspace; the toolbox aggregates extension tools alongside connection extensions.
- The extension marketplace adds database drivers, remote desktop providers, document renderers, connection importers, external editors, and native resource workbenches rendered by the host (starting with a Docker workbench for containers, images, logs, processes, and exec terminals). First-party extensions are built and published from the [navop-extensions](https://github.com/feigeCode/navop-extensions) repository.
- Quick open supports ad-hoc SSH connections from the tab bar, so throwaway sessions no longer need a saved connection.
### Native desktop experience
- Native GPUI interface with GPU-accelerated rendering; light, dark, and system themes, importable themes, accent colors, and window opacity.
- Home page with a unified grid layout, tree view, recent connections, batch connection management, and workspace drag-order persistence.
- Settings organized into dedicated database, terminal, Agent, and MCP pages; shortcuts can be cleared and system-wide hotkeys disabled.
- English, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese interfaces.
- Encrypted synchronization of personal connections, credentials, and settings across devices.
## Public MCP, Navop CLI, and Agent Skill
Navop can expose selected host-authoritative tools to external Codex, Claude, MCP clients, and automation. Enable the server under **Settings > General > MCP > MCP Server**, choose a permission profile (Safe / Confirm / Auto), and select the required groups under **Tool Exposure**. The runtime listens on a dynamic loopback-only port and authenticates clients with a user-only discovery token; Navop remains authoritative for live tools, schemas, permissions, approvals, and audit records.
For terminal-capable agents, install the [`@navop/cli`](https://github.com/feigeCode/navop-mcp) package and the bundled Navop Skill:
```bash
npm install -g @navop/cli@latest
# Install the Skill for Codex, or use --target agents for Agents-compatible clients
navop skill install --target codex --scope user
```
The separate [`@navop/mcp`](https://github.com/feigeCode/navop-mcp) package is only the stdio bridge for native MCP clients (`npx -y @navop/mcp@latest`). See the [Navop MCP and CLI repository](https://github.com/feigeCode/navop-mcp) and the [Public MCP guide](https://docs.navop.dev/en-US/guide/public-mcp) for the full command reference and client configuration.
